📢 New Downtown Sarasota Development May Face Zoning Hurdles

Sarasota is buzzing about The Adagio—a new two-tower development planned for Ringling Blvd between Palm and Pineapple.

Key facts:✔️ Western tower: 18 stories of luxury condos✔️ Eastern tower: 9 stories of attainable rental units✔️ 40% of rentals must be affordable for households earning up to 120% of the area’s median income

The project falls under Florida’s Live Local Act, but city planners have flagged an issue:

🏗️ The building’s large parking structure bumps its real height to 21 stories—meaning developers may need to cut 3 floors.

Reactions are mixed—some welcome the growth near Sarasota’s arts corridor, others worry about zoning and skyline clutter.
